Common Course Schedule Reconsideration

The Issue

The Fairleigh Dickinson University campuses residing in New Jersey want to have a common course schedule to "better align the academic organization, curricula and activities of the campuses." Two common course schedules were proposed: a Monday/Thursday, Tuesday/Friday schedule modeled after the Florham Campus and a Monday/Wednesday, Tuesday/Thursday schedule modeled after the Metropolitan Campus. The decision was made to use the Florham Campus schedule model beginning in Fall 2019; however, a variety of students have argued that the Metropolitan Campus schedule model would be a better alternative for both campuses. With each signing, I ask that you comment saying how the Metropolitan Campus Model will be more effective, or how it will affect you if the Florham Campus Model is selected.
